We've had our weekends this season but this past weekend is truly shit for us! 

that Wolves draw was the ONLY good news, for fucks sake (and even then they still gained on us, grrr)

Rafa breaking that Pepe goal DOWN

he is so so right, their LB played him (so stupidly) like Pepe was a RIGHT FOOTED winger, completely inverse body position from what he should have been

that is why I so so want a left footed RW, as Willian would offer zero goal threat from position (as would Pulisic and CHO too)

[Laylabelle 9,296]

Oh we're level on goals against with Bournemouth lol. Hurrah 

[Vesper 27,302]

whoaaaaaaa

Rafa said he would be open to taking the Everton job

wowow

[Vesper 27,302]

if you look at these two teams (granted the ageing on Milan played some role)

it is MAD that Victimpool won the CL in 2005 (it should have been US in that fucking game!!)

look at the names on Milan

Bournemouth's entire back 4 are out injured and so are Josh King and Callum Wilson. My god, if we don't beat them this weekend, heads need to roll! 

They all deserve a dock in wages then. 

[Vesper 27,302]

that was one of the best post games shows ever

superb long conversation with Rafa

he is a football genius

only manager in history to win the UEFA Europa League, UEFA Super Cup, UEFA Champions League, and the FIFA Club World Cup

15 topflight trophies in a 15 year run at 6 of the top 20 clubs in the world (4 of them in the top 10)

3 time European coach of the year

he did piss me off on two of the 3 biggest losses (he had nothing to do with Moscow 2008) for me as a Chels girl

that 2005 CL semifinal when he beat our best team ever  (which would have rendered 75% of this post game moot, lolol)

and then he failed to win the ONLY major trophy (that still exists in one form or another) we do not have, when we lost 1 nil to fucking Corinthians in the 2012 FIFA Club World Cup Final

Absolute no surprise that WHU went back into their fucking shell after beating us

Same will happen with Everton this weekend, normal service resumed again.

[Vesper 27,302]

Shanghai SIPG coach Vitor Pereira has ruled himself out of the running for the Everton job.

"It's always an honour and I am utterly grateful to be considered on a list by a club that I have so much respect for," Pereira told Sky Sports.

 

"At this point I am still the coach of SIPG, a club close to my heart in a country that is growing immensely in football. Currently I am not in a position to make any other commitments.

"I cannot decide now, I need time to think and plan my future by looking at all the options I have. It's a league I love and, yes, for sure I would love to consider an opportunity in the future."

Watching their defense, even right now, I mean, how is that even possible? How come they are paid the way they are?

We conceded the same number of goals in the PL 

[NikkiCFC 7,578]

City already lost more points than in two previous seasons. Also Leicester has best defense in Europe. PSG conceded one goal less but they play Ligue1. Wolves just two defeats (one from us) is another surprise.

Japan star Takumi Minamino will join Liverpool in January after the club agreed a £7.25million deal, subject to medical.

The Mirror claim the Reds beat Manchester United to his signature because they were aware of a clause in his contract - allowing him to leave for such a paltry figure - which their bitter Old Trafford rivals were oblivious to.

His club Salzburg extended the player’s deal to 2021 last February, but crucially conceded a get-out option which allows him to leave for a big European club at a price well below his market value of £25-30m.

He will undergo a medical in the coming weeks, and will also discuss personal terms. But it is understood the highly-rated attacking player is honoured that the current European champions want him, and is ready to sign.

Klopp has signed new 5 year deal with varpool. Why wouldnt he? THey trust him, he trusts them, gets his players, never ever gets under any pressure by the loving media, FA and PGMOL making sure they rack up pts, refs helping out......its perfect.

[MoroccanBlue 5,194]

He got his players because Barca were dumb enough to spend almost 200 million on Coutinho. 

Blame Barca
